As illustrated here, molding with continuous fiber reinforced composites enables improved flexural performance over filled polypropylene as well as increased impact resistance and overall weight reduction. From resin formulations to composite matrix and fiber configurations, we can help you develop the combination that will meet your specific needs. We can help you optimize your process—including via hands-on testing and trials at our Denver-based Composites Innovation Cell—to achieve targeted part performance.

Avient produced the continuous composite-profile braces using pultrusion technology. Initially, the Avient team evaluated several composite types and identified a solution with optimal performance. The carbon fiber-reinforced composite part was 17% lighter than the stock aluminum part, and the composite held up well in GM's extensive vibration, shake and road test regimen.
